Lol this is also a difference in type of. Chicken laying. The egg.
It's a variety of things really, but the biggest one is diet. There are a bunch of chicken feeds that include a source high in carotenoids in order to change the color of the yolk.
My father-in-law has chickens that lay a rainbow assortment of egg colors, and their yolks are all deep orange. You’re totally right—it’s diet! They are fed chimken feed, fruits, and other assorted safe-for-chicken treats. I love them.
Thats basically just the shell, I can give you a chicken and turkey egg and ya couldn't tell a difference
Yep yep! My father-in-law has a ton of different chimkens cuz he wanted rainbow eggshells and they all have the same deep orange colored yolk.
